Full of hate, full of love
All of our faith, radiates from above
Sickness like barnacles, attached to the heart
We all know, God and us will never be apart
Struggle within, never ending war
What dost thou Lord have in store?
Capable of such passions, and such destruction
One of our worse qualities
Capable of horrible seduction
Fascinating creatures, that’s who we are
But have we reached our potential?
Don’t think so by far
I once loved, with the entire world’s power
Now I doubt thy Lord, my soul I let Satan devour
I look back at my past of all I have done
Still God loves me, respectfully Lord, as if I were his only son
He grants me gifts, truly not deserving
I say this because, him I have not been completely serving
I pray now and again, hoping that he hears my cries
Though if he ignored me, my prayers would not subside
I find peace in darkness but justice in light
Like Yin and Yang, that’s a never ending fight
I am an Aquarian, may the waters forever flow
And like my abiding waters, I will go where God says go
I remember a memory, my mother so sweet
Sin back then, she helped me defeat
I pray for one thing, my soul’s completion
Without that near, I fear of my heart’s total deletion
For all that I feel that is horrible and plagued
I rebound with God’s heart, I shine day after day
Like a evil TWIN SOUL that lives within me
Hope that one day to conquer, so that God and I can live in peace

Sometimes God only appears to us when we are in serious need of him. I am not that religious. I just have beliefs that Satan is here to take over the world and he is doing a pretty good job of it. This is a great write and it holds alot of passion within the words that you use.
great job.

hmm.. the content is great, but the flow is iffy...
I like the part when you said,
I once loved, with the entire world’s power
Now I doubt thy Lord, my soul I let Satan devour.

A battle with ones own sins. This is expressed in a few lines such as
I once loved, with the entire world’s power
Now I doubt thy Lord, my soul I let Satan devour
Still God loves me, respectfully Lord, as if I were his only son
Grants me gifts, truly not deserving
I like the idea...maybe it could be refined a bit.
